Letter, Matthew Zwerling to Israel and Florence Zwerling and Sara; June 26, 1964
Transcript
Clarksdale, June 26, 1964
Dear Folks and Sara:
Just a note to say that we are starting to get a good community response and that my work is beginning to show results. There has been absolutely no violence, and police harassment has stopped. I think there will be no violence at all here, but harassment may pick up as the project picks up. There isn't really any way I can convey what I feel about Andy.
Love,
Mat
P.S. I got all your letters and that kind of encouragement really raised my spirits. There are daily frustrations which will be much easier to overcome if you all keep writing.
Love,
Mat
